About the magazine

Teen Vogue, originally launched in 2003 as a print magazine for adolescent girls, underwent a significant editorial transformation in 2015 under the leadership of Elaine Welteroth and Phillip Picardi. It evolved from a traditional fashion and beauty publication into a digitally native platform that interweaves fashion, culture, and politics, with a particular emphasis on social justice, youth activism, and inclusive representation. Its core mission is to empower young people to engage critically with the world, providing a progressive lens on issues ranging from reproductive rights to climate change, while maintaining a strong visual and cultural identity rooted in style and self-expression.

Teen Vogue primarily commissions work from established journalists, photographers, and artists, but it also accepts pitches for its digital platforms. Artists and writers should familiarize themselves with the publication's progressive editorial voice and focus on stories that resonate with a young, socially conscious audience. Pitches should be concise, timely, and demonstrate a clear understanding of Teen Vogue's intersectional approach. For visual submissions, a strong portfolio that aligns with its aesthetic—bold, inclusive, and culturally relevant—is essential. While the publication does not have a formal open call for art, opportunities may arise through its social media channels or special projects, so following its official accounts is advisable.
